high Nessus Plugin ID 306097

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Ubuntu host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote Ubuntu Pro Realtime 22.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-8164-1 advisory.

 Qualys discovered that several vulnerabilities existed in the AppArmor Linux kernel Security Module (LSM).
 An unprivileged local attacker could use these issues to load, replace, and remove arbitrary AppArmor profiles causing denial of service, exposure of sensitive information (kernel memory), local privilege escalation, or possibly escape a container. (LP: #2143853, CVE-2026-23268, CVE-2026-23269, CVE-2026-23403, CVE-2026-23404, CVE-2026-23405, CVE-2026-23406, CVE-2026-23407, CVE-2026-23408, CVE-2026-23409, CVE-2026-23410, CVE-2026-23411)

 Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel. An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system. This update corrects flaws in the following subsystems:

 - ARM64 architecture;

 - Cryptographic API;

 - Netfilter;

 - Network traffic control; (CVE-2025-37849, CVE-2026-23060, CVE-2026-23074, CVE-2026-23111)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the affected kernel package.
